Just wondered what ya'll are reading?
I'll start the ball rolling with my goto blogs:
Arts & Mysteries, Adam Cherbini: http://www.popwood.com/blog3/
* My personal Woodworking hero. 18th Century tools, techniques, reproductions and contemplations.
Woodworking Magazine, Chris Schwarz: http://www.woodworking-magazine.com/blog/
* The Man. By far my favorite writer in the industry. His hobbies include Workbenches, planes and lately coping saws.
Full Chisel, Stephen Shepard: http://www.fullchisel.com/blog/
* The Hide Glue guy. He does witty and detailed explorations of topics from glue to using linseed oil to make a coat water proof.
Peter Follansbee: http://pfollansbee.wordpress.com/
* Hand tool joiner extraordinaire. Seen on the Woodright's shop. If you want to see what can be done with an axe, fro, plane and chisels, start here!
Carl Hotley (Hotley Planes): http://www.holteyplanes.com/blog/
* Few make infill planes at the highest levels like Carl Hotley. His planes are a marvel. He also goes into amazing details on his decisions and techniques that go into his planes. If you are a tool making junkie and appreciate machine shops, this is one great place to hang out.
Wenzloff and Sons, Handsaw makers: http://wenzloffandsons.com/wordpress/
* They make fantastic saws. Period. They also share their approach and philosophy. You will learn a lot about saws from these folks.
Logan Cabinet Shoppe,Bob Rozaieski http://logancabinetshoppe.weebly.com/
* Bob has done what I consider the best job of covering 18th century woodworking from end to end. His video podcasts are a wealth of knowledge. Follow his tea table will teach you everything from how to use dividers to create proportions to working the wood efficiently.
George Walker: http://georgewalkerdesign.wordpress.com/
* New on the scene, George Walker is making the mystery of design approachable to woodworkers. In one entry, in two paragraphs, he showed how to lay out drawer pulls 5/9ths every time without a ruler. So simple, yet so key to a good looking fit.
So, who else is out there? I'd love to add to my daily digest of bloggery
